This unit seems to be a dud, does yours snap or pop or make any noise when you hit a bug? Mine seems to be generating less than static electricity.

Mine does snap/pop when hitting bugs. That's the electrical bolt, like lightning. If you have the bug on the racquet whilst holding the trigger, bouncing the bug a bit, you should see an ark of electricity and hear the snapping it's creating. The one we have will bring down the huge carpenter bees but you have to stomp them when they hit the ground or they'll just fly off. As for wasps and smaller insects ours has been working great.

Mine works great! It snaps n pops, n takes em all down. You may have a defective one.

Maybe you got a defective one, my zapper works great! It does make a pop and loud noise when it gets a bug but it's effective. I hopefully don't sound weird but it's totally fun.

mine does this too.. while it's sitting untouched alone on a shelf. Can't be static electricity... Seems defective.

When I called tech support back in October, they described the functionality as I stated in my earlier post. I guess I got lucky and got a tech that knew what he was talking about.I am, however, getting a intermittent popping noise now from the rear of the TV... It has always been there, but it finally started bothering me enough. My local warranty service provider will take my TV set again this evening to attempt to fix the problem. Evidently there is a new kit for it.

Curious... Does it just flicker on/off randomly? I ask because mine started doing that very recently. I thought I had a short somewhere but disconnected the output wire, and you could still hear the thing clicking on/off constantly on its own. So disappointed and haven't had it all that long.

Mine does not make any clicking noise. That definitely sounds like a defect to me.

I got mine yesterday and worked great for about 5 minutes... But I noticed the SOUND on/off option wasn't available on my unit - as shown on the user manual... I then pressed the factory reset option (hoping the sound option would appear), but instead the unit completely quit working... Dewalt said there isn't suppose to be a sound option and didn't know why my user manual was showing it.... There was no fix so I ended up having to return it for a new one... The wait begins again....

No, my unit does NOT make such a sound. I DO think it is faulty. Please return it, ASAP, but be sure you tell them why.

I don't experience this issue with my unit. Wonder this is due to faulty issue with the unit

Could be a defective unit. Mine will sometimes make a very slight hum (ear right next to the unit) but even when I'm lying in bed sleeping other than the reassuring click that it turned on, I can't hear the hum. I also am only drawing... ~11A on the heaviest circuit, if you're pulling more than that it could explain a louder noise

ok. Got the replacement.1) the static sound still exists from 1-8 but it's half as bad as the previous unit2) now sometimes i get a buzzing sound when the volume is at 0This one was also manufactured in October 2010.I'll see if this bothers me enough, else i'll send it back.

Did you ever get an answer? Mine appears to be buzzing all the time too - I agree. Extremely annoying.

On the handle there is botton when you press and HOLD it in then it is ON... when you let go of that same botton then it is OFF.. my does not make any type of sound unless you kill a bug with it or touch something like metal. If it does not work like this then Iit has a issue.

When mine was first installed, my electrician said I would hear some noises (something like a popping noise) after the unit shuts off and that would be normal. I'm not sure why. I've had mine installed for over 7 months and have not had any issues with it. I don't know for sure if it no longer makes the noise, or if it stops after a time.

I have had the same experience (loud buzz, dropped signal). Very disappointing in a system of this cost. Is Nuforce intending on fixing this or is our only approach - as commented previously - to defeat the bluetooth and direct wire, which defeats the point of the system? With the advent of new bluetooth systems that have entered the market I would suggest that if Nuforce doesn't provide a fix to this problem that they will fail.

I'm not sure if your unit is defective. My newtrent does not make noise when charging. you may have to contact the company so they can help you with that issue.
